This November keep your eyes peeled for earthgrazers blazing across the night sky! 🌠
The Leonid meteor shower is active November 6 - 30, peaking overnight November 16 through 17, bringing fast, colorful fireballs and the occasional low-flying Earthgrazer.

One of the best aurora displays I've ever seen ✨ over Lake Superior from Marquette, MI
These throwback photos were taken on this day - October 24, 2011 - the sky went off in every direction - was the only time I've captured orange, including orange in a corona!... and notable intense reds in the southern sky were jaw dropping

Around 73 million wild birds have disappeared in the last 50 years. The Guardian recreated the morning bird songs from the 1970s, and the difference from today’s is astounding. The shifting baseline syndrome happens when each new generation measures the amount of loss from
